Man, I dig this pedal! I have been playing since 1965 and have always believed in the sound when you turn the guitar down it is clean and turn it up and it is distorted and full. This is the way this pedal is. The switch is genius with normal/treble, mid and low so you can tailor it to the guitar or amp. In my small studio I can put my Marshall studio JTM20 on the 5-watt setting and put Beano into action and it sounds just like a JTM45 at 10. Awesome! Since I liked this pedal so much, I bought two more different pedals because the sound quality and build quality is spectacular. Thanks so much, Peter.

Wow. It’s as good as people say it is.

Just got one of these and cannot believe how good it sounds. It’s everything folks say it is. And then some.
Initially, I put it behind some buffered pedals and thought I was going to have to return or flip it. Really harsh and tinny. Then I read some more and put it after my ge fuzz but before everything else. I was blown away.
Responds great to guitar volume and sounds killer. Worried it’s going to make my other dirt pedals irrelevant. My first Analogman purchase. It won’t be my last. Thanks!

Just buy a Beano Boost already.

I'd tried overdrive after overdrive to push my more lightly-gained amps, especially my Vox AC15, and every pedal either did too much (totally changed the amp) or too little (hardly added anything). The Beano Boost was exactly what I needed the whole time. The way it pushes an amp into maximum rock'n'roll while retaining the amp's character is incredible. Put a Beano Boost in front of any light- to medium-gain amp and listen to it transform into a fire-breathing, infinite-sustaining, solo-singing, midrange-ripping crunch monster. And if you've already got your amp cooking, hit it with the Beano, and all that extraneous fizz and flub will tighten up into a vocalized laser of tone for your solos. Mick Ronson with Bowie, Marc Bolan with T. Rex, Tony Iommi with Sabbath, and, best of all, Brian May with Queen are all waiting in this pedal.

Beano Boost Vs Other Treble Boosters
February 11, 2021
Reviewer:

I have tried this Beano with other True Bypass Treble Boosters. The rest are pricier and don't truly justify. Some to name are: - BSM Treble Boost, Soulsonic Custom 4Banger, Rory Gallagher's The Hawk by Flynn Amps, UK, and a few more.
All I can say is that the Beano Boost has its own character. Every nuance of your playing style is noticeable, meaning it reacts to your style of guitar playing. 10/10 for the Beano with Strats/Teles. Has an Awesome low volume growl with my Bareknuckle pickups. Good job Mike!

Twist & Toggle-The Beano is Primo!!!

The Beano boost has an amazing range. By twisting the volume and toggling between tones, the Beano has a wide variety of uses on it's own. My Beanos are stock and they sound proper with all guitars and amps, put in their path!!! The Beano also plays well with other pedals!! With the Beano supplying a little bit of color on the front of the chain, everything sounds sweet and complete! Thanks again Analogman for another colorful tone box of molten sonic Fuzz!!!
